Abstract excerpt
Fluorescent proteins isolated from coral reef organisms can be roughly grouped into four color classes by emission, cyan, green, yellow, and red. To gain insight into the structural basis for cyan emission, the crystal structure of amFP486 (lambda(em)max = 486 nm) was determined by molecular replacement, and the model was refined at 1.65-A resolution. The electron density map reveals a chromophore formed from the...
